Moreover, it was a brand new Flying Boat, being used for the first time today.

Within the cabin, there were already eight hundred thousand Spirit Jade stored, enough for the Flying Boat's normal operation for ten years.

Consider this an apology gift to Miss Cece, I truly apologize."

He then pointed to the sealed iron box.

"This is the core of the Deep Abyss Fierce Beast, Dawei, containing highly condensed filth and toxins.

It was obtained by my ancestor years ago when he ventured into the Abyss. We have no use for it, nor do we know how to use it.

Now, I offer it to Brother Wu as a compensation gift."

At first, it would have ended here, for the matter regarding Lin Fu had nothing to do with him.

Yet Lei Yu also brought out a jade bottle.

"Senior Lin, being a senior, chose to risk Devilic madness back then rather than retreat a step, protecting the weak women and children. I admire such righteousness.

This is a bottle of Awakening Spirit Liquid from the Heart Clearing Sect, the finest, which should aid Senior Lin. Please accept it gladly."

Yu Ziqing remained silent, secretly sighing.

This fellow was truly a talent.

He seemed sincere, yet the gifts he brought were things everyone would like, inadvertently showcasing his strength.

Every item here was not something just anyone could obtain.

Like this White Jade Flying Boat beneath his feet, it's something money could not easily buy.

At least, he couldn't afford it, and he didn't even have the Spirit Jade in reserve for burning.

He thought he had some small assets, but unexpectedly, given a Flying Boat, he couldn't even afford to fuel it.

The core of the Fierce Beast given to Wu Shuangge could certainly allow his Companion Magical Treasure to advance, possibly having enough for the next upgrade too.

Awakening Spirit Liquid was also a valuable item.

He had heard about Uncle Fu's Devilic experience and asked Yang, who said entering Devilic madness was generally helpless, relying solely on oneself.

However, the Awakening Spirit Liquid could enable a clear mind after Devilic madness, providing sufficient strength to contend with Devil Thought, at least offering a chance, preventing one from losing consciousness deeply while Devilic, reaching a point of no return.

Though the number of items was few, one for each person, each was truly worth a fortune.

Yu Ziqing looked at Cece and the others.

Cece knew the reason for their politeness and personal apology was certainly because their Young Master had done something remarkable.

Despite still being angry, she knew this was the best outcome now, and the timing was just right.

Continuing would break down negotiations, benefiting no one.

For the Young Master and them, the drawbacks were evidently more significant too.

It wasn't necessary to make enemies.

Cece accepted the Jade Token, then glanced at Wu Shuangge, who reluctantly took the iron box.

"Thank you, Young Master Lei."

"Miss Cece, no need for courtesy."

Seeing this, Lin Fu also accepted the Awakening Spirit Liquid, cupping his hands slightly.

He was merely there to rescue Yu Ziqing, and since Yu Ziqing was fine, he didn't care much about other matters.

Because, after his Devilic experience, he had nearly wiped out King Huai's powerful subordinates.

Under the Seventh Tier didn't count, but among Great Cultivators of the Seventh Tier, he killed eight.

If not for reinforcements with a Heaven and Earth Net Array that trapped him, he would have even slain King Huai.

Having accepted the compensation, Lei Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Clearly aware of hidden calculations, Yu Ziqing didn't want to make enemies for no reason, satisfying the wishes of those in the shadows.

Lei Yu felt the same.

When everyone was willing to talk, there was room for negotiation.

As conversations drew to a close, three Flying Boats flew southward, arriving in the southwest of Dazhen.

Apart from the Hengduan Mountains looming faintly on the horizon, one could still see snow-capped peaks.

On the ground, nearly all traces of snow had vanished, lush green grass and abundant vegetation thrived, with gentle rivers winding across the land, and herds of cattle and sheep dotted the landscape.

This place was starkly different from the thousand miles of uninhabited northern Dazhen, where ice and snow lingered.

"Brother Qing, what do you think of this place?"

"The scenery is picturesque, with abundant water and grass. It's a rare and wonderful place," Yu Ziqing replied truthfully.

"This area is like this for a thousand miles southward. Moving further southwest for three thousand miles leads into the Wilderness.

Ultimately, it was my own arrogance that nearly led me into a vile trap.

Thankfully, Brother Qing's good fortune helped; otherwise, I wouldn't know how to face Ancestor Li.

To the south here lies a thousand miles of fertile land, crossed by two major rivers.

There are also eight hundred acres of premium spirit field.

Consider all of it a compensation gift for Brother Qing.

Please, Brother Qing, do not refuse."

Lei Yu stood up, clasping his hands with a solemn bow.

Yu Ziqing also stood and returned the gesture.

"There's no need..."

Even with Lei Yu's generous gesture, Yu Ziqing remained indifferent internally.

Such a thing, he didn't plan to accept nor could he manage.

That vast area still lies within the borders of Dazhen, better to just drop it.

Given Dazhen's current situation, even if he obtained it, he wouldn't be able to hold it.

It's not like he could ask the Lei Clan to help guard it, right?

Definitely not.

As the two spoke, the other two Flying Boats quietly took off.

Before long, Yu Ziqing sensed a battle in the distance, involving more than one or two individuals.

Divine Light flickered on the horizon, killing intent surged, Thunder Light flashed, and the battle was fierce.

Inside King Huai's residence.

King Huai sat in the study, his face livid.

Opposite him sat a person without facial features.

"The Lei Clan struck directly at me, what say you now?"
